Actress Reese Witherspoon says leaving an emotionally abusive relationship was one of the most difficult decisions of her life. The actor, in an interview with her Wrinkle in Time co-star Oprah Winfrey, said the decision changed her as a person and more confident, reported E! Online. “For me, probably leaving an abusive relationship (was the most difficult decision). I drew a line in the sand, and it got crossed, and my brain just switched.

I couldn’t go any further. I was really young, and it was profound,” Witherspoon told Winfrey during last weekend’s SuperSoul Sunday programming block. “I could never be the person I am today. It changed who I was on a cellular level, the fact that I stood up for myself. None of those leaving those situations... it’s wrought with selfdoubt, particularly if someone damages your self-esteem.” Witherspoon said her experience with domestic abuse motivated her to develop Big Little Lies.
